==History== In 1997, Nike commenced production of its own line of skate shoes, but was unable to sell to many specialist skate shops, as the market was already strongly in favour of companies such as DC, Globe, eS Footwear, Emerica, and Vans. Nike was not considered a core skateboarding brand among the skateboarding community and did not receive the necessary level of support.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Mukhametzyanova |first=Marianna |date=2021-06-11 |title=The History of the Nike Dunk and the Nike SB Dunk |url=https://hypebeast.com/2021/6/nike-sb-dunk-history-sneakers-skateboarding-basketball |access-date=2023-11-29 |website=Hypebeast}}</ref>
In 2002, Nike introduced the "SB" brand. The Nike SB Dunk Low model was released, featuring a padded tongue and collar, along with "Zoom Air" insoles; the shoe was more similar to other skate shoe styles than the corporation's previous attempts. After the SB Dunk's mediocre sales, Nike released four other models: The Nike SB Angus, Nike SB FC, Nike SB Delta Force, and Nike SB URL.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2010-06-01 |title=The History Of Nike Skateboarding Shoes |url=https://skateboardingmagazine.com/the-history-of-nike-skateboarding-shoes/ |access-date=2023-11-29 |website=Skateboarding Magazine}}</ref>

The collection included increased padding, Zoom Air insoles, and enhanced material quality, including triple stitching, a standard for skate shoes.
In 2005, Rodriguez released a signature shoe model named the "Nike SB Paul Rodriguez Zoom Air Low". That year, one of Nike SB's spokespersons, Lance Mountain, decided to release the Nike Blazer SB, a version of the Nike Blazer basketball shoe from the early 1970s. It was named the Nike SB Blazer and several new features were added, such as the padded collar and Zoom Air insoles. Mountain previously rode for Adidas<ref>{{cite web|title=Adidas2|url=http://www.lancemountain.com/mainpage/personalcolection/personalcollection_nav_posters/Adidas/2/Adidas-2.html|work=Lance Mountain|publisher=Lance Mountain|access-date=7 October 2012|author=Lance Mountain|year=1999}}</ref> and then joined Nike SB in 2007.

In the late 2010s and early 2020s, the Nike SB dunk has had a booming resurgence. Nike SB has had many collaborations over the years on SB Dunk shoes. Some notable 2020 collaborations include StrangeLove, Travis Scott, Ben & Jerry's, Concepts, and Atlas. These collaborations led to the resurgence of the SB Dunk, in both the skateboarding and streetwear community.<ref>{{Cite web |date=13 October 2021 |title=Nike Dunk: A Complete Guide |url=https://fastsole.co.uk/sneaker-news/nike-dunk-guide/ |access-date=22 November 2021}}</ref>
Once the proper skateboarding division of Nike was created, it did not take too long for the fusion of Jordan Brand skateboarding to take place. Iterations of the Air Jordan like the “Phat” in the late 2000s beefed up the model and became popular with skaters, though an official Nike SB x Jordan release would not occur until 2014.<ref name="Sole Retriever">{{cite web |last1=Vlahos |first1=Nicholas |title=Every Nike SB x Jordan Collaboration |url=https://www.soleretriever.com/news/articles/every-nike-sb-x-jordan-collaboration-history-of-skateboarding-and-jordan-sneakers |website=Sole Retriever |publisher=Sole Retriever |access-date=20 May 2024}}</ref>
==Competitions== In 2012, following Koston's recruitment as a team rider, a competition entitled "Mr. Control It All" was launched to coincide with the release of Koston's inaugural signature shoe model with the brand. Koston hosted the competition, alongside fellow team members, Sean Malto and Justin Brock, and it consisted of numerous missions, or challenges. For example, in "Mission 1", a different trick was performed by all three skateboarders and entrants were required to send in their edited footage in which they perform the same set of tricks. The entire competition was conducted on the internet, on sites such as YouTube, The Berrics and Nike's own skateboarding site.<ref>{{cite web|title=Eric Koston - Mr. Control It All: Mission 1, Warm It Up|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6Vu_8UeJE4|work=YouTube|publisher=Google, Inc|access-date=14 December 2012|author=nikeskateboarding |author2=Eric Koston |author3=Sean Malto |author4=Justin Brock|format=Video upload|date=26 March 2012}}{{cbignore}}{{Dead YouTube link|date=February 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Nike SB: Eric Koston - Mr. Control It All|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGYd-vPw8Z8|work=YouTube|publisher=Google, Inc|access-date=14 December 2012|author=nikeskateboarding|format=Video upload|date=23 March 2012}}{{cbignore}}{{Dead YouTube link|date=February 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Nike's 'Mr. Control it all' Koston Commercial|url=http://www.popmag.com.au/industry/video/nike-mr-control-it-all-koston-commercial.aspx|work=Pop Magazine|publisher=Pop Magazine|access-date=14 December 2012|author=DAVE|date=2 April 2012}}</ref>
==Special editions== In addition to yearly releases, a variety of special edition Nike Dunk SBs have been released.

Brands like Stüssy, Supreme New York, Staple Design, and Concepts all developed their own version of the Nike SB Dunk that became highly desired. The Nike Dunk SB Low Staple "NYC Pigeon" was also initially released in 2005 by Staple Design. The shoe made headlines of the New York Post because of a riot that started over the shoe and its release. On an interview with Jeff Staple owner of Staple Design, he stated "They were pulling kids off the gate and arresting them, and kids are holding onto the gate not letting go. Then it turned into a soccer match. Cops called higher level police, like SWAT, and some of the people who came to wait in line brought their own weapons. We saw machetes and baseball bats on the ground. It was crazy. It was just go to a store and buy shoes before that.” <ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/jeff-staple-nike-sb-dunk-pigeon-riot-interview/|title=Jeff Staple Talks About the 2005 Nike SB "Pigeon" Riot|date=2018-09-12|work=Highsnobiety|access-date=2018-09-12|language=en-US}}</ref> Nike SB made an impact on what is known today as sneaker culture, and in an article from Hypebeast, which says "the success of SB and my desire to have them to the cool color schemes which allowed us as a community to nickname each shoe and the coinciding box colors that signaled different eras"<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://hypebeast.com/2018/1/nike-sb-15-year-op-ed|title=Nike SB: Living Through the Trend, 15 Years Later|work=HYPEBEAST|access-date=2018-09-12}}</ref> and with limited product and high demand it added more to the triumph of Nike SB at the time.

The Nike Skateboarding website featured a large photo of Marnell on its homepage and published the following tribute:
<blockquote> It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we are to inform you of the passing of our longtime professional rider friend, Lewis Marnell. A skater whose incredible trademark pop could only be matched by the warmth of his smile, Lewis was an amazing person both on and off his board and will be truly missed. Our deepest condolences to his family and friends. Rest In Peace.<ref>{{cite web|title=Lewis Marnell|url=http://www.nike.com/us/en_us/c/skateboarding/stories/2013/01/lewis-marnell|work=Nike Skateboarding|publisher=Nike, Inc|access-date=21 January 2013|date=January 2013|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130124003736/http://www.nike.com/us/en_us/c/skateboarding/stories/2013/01/lewis-marnell|archive-date=24 January 2013}}</ref></blockquote>
